I heard the sound of the lesser-spotted nocturnal ar$ehole, (or to be given his proper name, chavvy fannybaws-nedious) awoken from his drunken stupor from the previous nights debauchery by his second most feared enemy, daylight.

The first being the fuzz, however they have become very sly in avoiding the fuzz. They have discovered that if they do not act like complete c*ckends they will not do a 'weekender'.

However, if they are certain there are no fuzz around, they tend to attract each other with calls of 'Hello, Hello, we are the billy bhoys' or 'If ye cannae dae the bouncy yer a tim'  and congregate in the most inconvenient of places; street corners, outside the local off licence or convenience store.

I took the pups out for a walk shortly after hearing their first calls, and within 100 yards the lesser-spotted nocturnal ar$ehole's scattered with chav abandon, shouting, 'bolt man! he's a copper wi polis dugs!'

I love my pups. :-*

plenty of paraquets in the trees near me, st georges hill in weybridge there is thousands on there estate. apparently what i was told was after the making of the film "the birds by hitchcock" most of the birds got let out and they have adapted to our weather. richmond park is a good place for exotic birds.

get a few red breasts there in the summer too  ;) ;)

I saw some flocks of Parakeet when I was in Kent recently; I thought I were 'seeing things' when I first spotted those squawking green mini-parrots!
I suppose exotic birdies are ideally suited to Heathrow area, as it has it`s own micro-climate; it`s always seems far-hotter than elsewhere when I go to the 'animal reception centre' on the southern peri.-road (no too far from you I think Richie)  :y
